Things were getting heated during a Town Hall on Hilton Head today.
Representative Mark Sanford invited constituents to address issues that concern them.
"I'm not going to say we came to any solutions or anyone walked out the door feeling like they won, but I feel like these discussions are important to continue," said Lowcountry resident, Alexis King.
Many people held "Agree" or "Disagree" signs to further push their points.
People brought up concerns about President Trump, healthcare, and funding for a border wall. "I think instead of thinking the wall is the solution, we need to put at least as much effort into making a clearer path for citizenship," said King.
"I think that part of sovereignty is definition of where the country starts and stops," said Sanford. "I think that part of sovereignty means being able to determine who is in your country legally and illegally and I think that's a basic requirement for any country, not just the United States."
The Town Hall ran from 3 p.m. until 5 p.m. in the school's gym, but Sanford stayed until about 5:45 p.m. answering as many questions as he could.
